Handling a dispute between church members can be tricky. Often times gossip will be spread (intentionally or unintentionally), feelings will be hurt, and people leave.
Missing in the whole discussion is what *actually* happened to cause the split in the first place. That’s why Matthew 18 is so important — it gives a step by step playbook of how to handle church disputes in a way that emphasizes relationships instead of winning.
If followed properly, many churches would be reconciled instead of splitting. All it takes is a little bit of humility from everyone.

CloseOur spiritual family is one of the greatest blessings we have as Christians. It strengthens us, encourages us, corrects us, and supports us when times get tough. But we only get out of it what we put into it. If we join a church to see what they can give to us, we'll only find bitterness. If we join a church asking how we can contribute, we'll find blessings and more. Which one describes me? In this theme service, we looked at how Christians are first drawn from afar, how we're united by faith, and that hope drives us forward.
